8 months already
 
Hi all

not been on the forum much since we arrived 8 months ago have had loads to do but we are more settled now.:)
The dogs where in Byford kennels for 30 days so we had plenty of time to find a rental.
We decided to go to Mandurah which is lovely and there are many rentals to choose from that allow indoor pets then we went looking for a job.There are loads out there.
We brought a container over by excess international then brought to the house by grace removals and everything was unpacked for us;) .Not even a broken cup.
Only thing we have not done and that is buy a house .Will look in about 6 months (hopfully the prices will go down:eek: )

If i can help you in anyway just let me know;)

I think Salsa found that out too as they've recently moved to Secret Harbour - not a lot of rentals on the internet but a fair amount when you get here. There are a number of us in the areas you've stated so you wouldn't be on your own !

Thanx for the reply, its nice to know theres people already there who can give us a few pointers. Thats made me feel a bit better about the rentals too.

I've been looking at schools and it seems there are a few around these areas but again I suppose its better to go and have a look at them when we get there,,,,,, but if you've got any advice that will be great 2. :)

cheers
Jo

most of the primary and junior schools are good - if you're after a senior school you may be better off sticking to Port Kennedy/ Secret Harbour way.

Re: 8 months already
 
Hi all,

Would you mind if i join in !!!!!!1

I am hoping to also move to Mandurah or any city on the Peel region by July or later/earlier depending on when DIAC will give it's green of course.
Peel region because of my STNI visa.

My concern is housing for the time being. I would like to know how and where i can rent a temporary accomodation to let for say 1 month at a reasonable price (i do not require any luxury) for wife, son 17 yrs and myself pending we find another one.
Of couse, i have made some search on internet, but most of time those accomodation are highly priced.

Thank you for your help/suggestions.
